"Welcome to Hellspout the most unpredictable and energetic port the world has ever seen. It's the freest place in the whole world, although I'd watch your step and your silver because half-trolls and goblins like picking fights and they need money too. If you're looking to wet your whistle I'd stop at a pub, although I'd also make sure to have a dagger in hand and my wits about me. The ale may taste like horse piss but it's well known to make dwarves angry, humans brave, and gnomes even more belligerent than usual. Enjoy your stay but be quick on your feet or it's liable to be a short one."
-message porters are supposed to tell each visitor to Hellspout

"The only thing good that's ever come out of Hellspout is their ale and their landships, and the former is just do to its combustibility."
-Franz Pertan, Germarian scholar

"BLAST THOSE STUPID METAL SHIPS AND THEIR DWARVISH CREWS. Wait... FIRE AT THAT SMOKEY THING.(BOOM) HAHA! TAKE THAT STUPID METAL SHIPS."
-Marlex Foren, Captain of the Midnight Flight raiding party

"Hellspout is the most disgusting place in the world. In addition to dwarves and gnomes they have half bred trolls. Normal trolls were bad enough but now there are creatures who are even more repulsive then normal trolls."

-Thorain Witfin, elf noble

"Anyone who says Hellspout is a hell hole has obviously never been to Hellspout. Its much MUCH worse then that."

-Garlen Merdox, pub keeper

"I like da 'ellspout ladz cause dey can put up a rela good scrap when deys drunk."

Melas is a territory near the north western part of the Dominion, bordering on what is now the Northern Wastes and was were the first Scarecrow army was defeated. However, around 280 years earlier, many people began to complain about pounding headaches, hallucinations, spasms, voices in their heads, and a host of other symptoms. Then people began coughing up blood and ,although not all of the victims did this, die. People began to blame witches and apothecaries for causing all of this. The truth however was much simpler, Siçovultaun and Verbode Kennis had declared war on each other and had chosen Melas as the "perfect" place in which to fight.

Soon the territory was invaded by an army of Ratkins and an army of zombies and quickly afterwords Melas became a place of death. The governor, Lyle Philps, Pleaded to the Dominion government for assistance, unfortunately, this was during the height of the 5 year siege of Albion, so the 5000 troopers and 60,000 militia men were all they had to fend off two armies, who both numbered in the hundreds of thousands, and they also had to keep order among the 1,720,000 citizens.

The war dragged on for 3 whole years before eventually,with the aid of a Gnomeish merchant expedition force, the Melas army managed to defeat both the Taboo and the Ratkins. This caused both Siçovultaun and Verbode Kennis to relocate their war to the Goblin Planes were, after 200 years of being defeated by the Goblins, Garmariens, Vissarians, and the Plain Riders, the 2 gods called a temporary truce that ,if truth be told, lasted a grand total of 5 minuets.

"PLAGUE! Isn't that such a fun word to say? PLAGUE PLAGUE PLAGUE PLAGUE! The death it causes is also a lot of fun."
-Boret Rater, Ratkin Plague seeker

"Please don't even get me started on the Ratkins. It's bad enough that everyone says the Trolls are more advance then us now they keep saying the Ratkins are more advance then us.I bet its those damn skull gnomes again."
-redhead berger, gnome engineer

"Ihis may seem like the dumbest thing you here from a Ratkin but YOU WILL NOT GET PAST!"
-Tiki Ratingham, Storm Guardian

"As if gnomes, goblins, and Chaos worshipers weren't bad enough no we also have to deal with some crazed rats who believe in yet another one of Chaos' traitors, Siçovultaun, the god of Plagues, storms, and apparently rats."
-Thorain Witfin, elf noble

The Rat People are among the most dangerous of our enemies. Not only they are great in numbers, but they spread all kinds of disease wherever they go. Even when facing them in combat there is a chance of catching a deadly illness. It is because of this that many of our soldiers are in quarantine.

Although many thousand have tried only one person has succeeded, and if my sources are accurate , that person is a women."
-Franz Pertan, Garmarian scholar

At the beginning of the Holy War the Vissarians had too large an army to transport over the Black Gulf to invade Arabi or even the Evershifting Realms. So their king decided to march over land to get to Arabi. The only problem is that the Dominion, the goblin plains, and even the troll realms lie between them and their goal. Undaunted the Vissarian army marched south defeating several armies and razing a large number of villages. Eventually they came to the mile wide river known as Imperial Ford, the river that separates the continent of the ancients(and the Dominion) from the southern continent.

A short time after they crossed the river the Vissarian army came under attack by a large Troll werbend trying to invade the Dominion. They two armies clashed near the river pressing their advantages, numbers and fanaticism for the Vissarians, more advanced weapons and durability for the trolls, to their full advantage. At around twilight the two armies had fought to a stalemate with the ground covered with so many bodies and so much gore that the ground was a red quagmire and, although both armies were dead beat, they continued fighting until the next dawn.

Eventually the troll army left the field of battle, in an unnervingly orderly way for trolls, while the Vissarians claimed a victory. Unfortunately the Vissarian army lost over 70,000 of their original 85,000 troops and when they finally made it to Arabi they were defeated by a wandering Ratkin tribe.

-Scean Gorvean, Chaos elementalist

"BROTHERS! SISTERS! HEAR ME OUT!
THE HOLY WARS HAVE JUST BEGUN!"
-heiligeleier Dontee, Announcing the beginning of the Holy Wars

"One thing I have to give the Vissarians is that they are fanatically religious. This is neither good nor bad ,however , it does make defeating them a very difficult task to accomplish."
-Thorain Witfin, elf noble

"Hehehe. Does Vissies are dumba den da oda squisheis cause dey live in a frozen land and fink dat dere god is rela rela nice. If 'e was rela rela nice 'e would make food and stuff fell from dat fing up dere but insted 'e sent us trolls ta crush dem."
